KELTROL TF is a clarified 200-mesh food-grade xanthan gum suitable for use in food preparations that require both rapid hydration and high clarity. KELTROL TF provides clear solutions and imparts high solution viscosity at low gum concentrations, exhibiting pseudoplastic rheology profile and little solution viscosity change over a wide temperature range. It is compatible with and stable in solutions containing high salt concentrations, soluble and stable in both acid and alkaline conditions. KELTROL TF exhibits synergistic increase in viscosity when used with other gums and hydrates faster than standard grades when well dispersed. KELTROL TF benefits the food industry by providing excellent suspension for insoluble solids and oil droplets, freeze-thaw stability, and low viscosity while processing with full recovery after shearing. It also performs well in dry mixes where rapid hydration with minimal mixing is required.
